| Obverse description | The central device features the coat of arms of Mayotte, depicting a quartered shield bearing a crescent moon in the upper half and two ylang-ylang flowers in the lower half, all within an ornate cartouche, with a ribbon scroll at the base inscribed 'RA HACHIRI'. Two seahorses serve as heraldic supporters flanking the shield on either side. The issuer name 'MAYOTTE' arcs along the upper legend in raised Latin lettering, while the denomination 'Un franc' appears in cursive script along the lower field. |

| Reverse description | A highly detailed, naturalistic depiction of a Dimetrodon occupies the central field, shown in left-facing profile in a low, prowling stance with its characteristic tall neural spine sail prominently displayed along its dorsal ridge. The creature's open jaws reveal serrated teeth, and a sparse prehistoric landscape with bare trees is rendered in the background. The species name 'Dimetrodon' arcs along the upper legend in raised Latin lettering, and the date '2016' is inscribed in the lower exergue. |
